My dad grew up wrestling. He knew Ken Shamrock, and I didn’t know who he was at the time. So, he found out that Shamrock was in a gym in Reno, and he wanted me to go try a class with him. I tried it and fell in love the first day. Ken told me that I had potential in this sport, and he’s the reason I kept at it.
‘Reno’ was originally going to be a sketch show, with the cops as a transitional element.
We were going to do ‘Reno 911!: New York, New York, Las Vegas,’ which was like a ‘Die Hard’ set not in New York, but in the New York, New York casino in Las Vegas. We were really excited about being locked into the one casino and doing a bad action movie.
Here’s a little known fact – Arnold is the first body builder to run for governor since Janet Reno.
In addition, I’m finishing a track for the movie ‘Waking Up In Reno’, but there are numerous other singers I look forward to recording with in the near future.
The kitchen is the most valuable room in the home, so a smart kitchen reno will bring great return on investment.
Improv kind of goes hand in hand with what I do. I was on ‘Reno 911!’ for six years, and that was a completely improvised show.
In cop shows, the police don’t get to rag on each other and rag on their commander and rag on the person they just pulled over. That was all ‘Reno’ was, and I think that’s all cops do 90 percent of their day.
I think our ‘Reno’ cops are, basically, if you made us make fun of ourselves at a party. That is what we would do. We would do those characters and not really think about it. We didn’t develop the characters; everyone just put on a name tag and started improvising.
I get inspired when I look at Tom Lennon, who did ‘Reno 911!’ for six seasons while writing huge movies and directing and also doing other pilots; he did that FX pilot, the ‘Star Trek’ thing.
I don’t think I ever wore pants on ‘Reno 911!’ and I was on it about five times.
Super Troopers is hilarious. Everybody always thought we somehow – we did Reno way, way before any of us had seen Super Troopers. It sat on the shelf for a couple years.
Some days you wake up and don’t realize where you’re at and you go, ‘What the hell am I doing here?’ That happened in a couple of cities, places. Reno, some places overseas.
‘The State’ had never done improv. We used to go over scripts for weeks and argue about every joke. But I don’t know how we would have scripted ‘Reno.’
I don’t get used to it. When something splashy comes around like the Emmys or the Baftas I’m still bowled over that a gal from Reno, Nevada, is on the arm of a gent like Patrick Stewart.
Nevada Energy doesn’t lose money. The gaming industry loses money. It employs all the people. It pays all the taxes. And if you take the P&L, the profit and loss, of the hotels in Las Vegas and Reno, it is a number that is minus, not plus, minus.
Mr. Janet Reno? I think Mr. Janet Reno… I think he’s one of the best hunting dogs in the world.
‘Reno 911: Miami!’ is a terrible, terrible title, and all the reviews – good and mostly bad – nobody pointed out how stupid a title that was. But you can hardly come up with a sentence that’s more awkward.
The ‘Reno’ movie is very solid. ‘Balls of Fury’ I’m pretty disappointed in – I blame myself. People hate both of those movies equally.
